Six dogs pull a two-person sled with a total mass of 220 kg. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the sled and the snow i

s 0.08. The sled accelerates from rest at 0.75 m/s2 until it reaches a speed of 12 km/h. a) What is the work done by the dogs in the accelerating phase? b) What is the maximum power output by the dogs? c) What is the pulling force from the dogs (assumed to be horizontal)?

Answer:

a) 2457J

b) 558W

c) 337N

Explanation:

Assuming dogs started from rest.

v=a*t\\t=\frac{a}{v}\\v=12\frac{km}{h}\frac{1000m}{km}*\frac{1h}{3600s}\\\\v=3.3m/s\\\\t=\frac{3.3m/s}{0.75m/s^2}\\t=4.4s

and the displacement is given by:

d=\frac{1}{2}*a*t^2\\d=7.3m

Using the energy conservation formula:

K_i+U_i+W_d+W_f=K_f+U_f

Because the motion started from rest the initial kinetic energy is zero, the motion occurred in-ground level so the gravitational energy is zero too.

the work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f*d*cos(\theta)\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d*cos(180)\\W_f=0.08*220kg*9.8m/s^2*7.3m*(-1)\\W_f=-1259J

so:

W_d=\frac{1}{2}*220kg*(3.3m/s)^2+1259J\\W_d=2457J

The power is given by:

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\\P=\frac{2457J}{4.4s}\\\\P=558W

and the force exerted by the dogs:

W_d=F_d*d*cos(\theta)\\F_d=\frac{W_d}{d*cos(0)}\\\\F=\frac{2457J}{7.3m*(1)}\\\\F=337N

Find the mass of a body if the acceleration the body used to move is given as 5 m/s-2 and the force of the body is 30N take g=10
Aleonysh [2.5K]

The mass of a body if the acceleration the body used to move is given as 5 m/s-2 will be 3 kg.

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is defined as the push or pulls applied to the body. Sometimes it is used to change the shape, size, and direction of the body.

Force is defined as the product of mass and acceleration. Its unit is Newton.

Given data;

Force,F = 30 N

Mass,m =  kg

Acceleration,a = 5 m/s²

The force is found as;

F=ma

30 N =m kg × 5 m/s²

m=3 kg

Hence the mass of a body will be 3 kg.

To learn more about the force refer to the link;

Below is the data from a gas law experiment comparing the pressure and the volume of a gas at a given temperature.
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

The combined gas equation relates three variables pressure, temperature and volume when the number of moles is constant.

The equation is PV / T = constant. Which is valid for a fixed number of moles of the gas.

You can derive the combined gas equation from the combination of Bolye's law, Charles' law and Gay-Lussac's law, which needs some algebra.

The weight of the box is <em>w</em> = <em>mg</em>, where <em>m</em> is the mass. So

<em>m</em> = <em>w</em>/<em>g</em> = (3893.40 N) / (9.80 m/s²) ≈ 397 kg

Then the box has density

(397 kg)/(4.60 m³) ≈ 86.4 kg/m³

which is less than the density of the given liquid, so the box will float.
